Finger Lakes
American Viticultural AreaEstablished 1982
The Finger Lakes AVA, established in 1982 under 27 CFR Part 9, encompasses the elongated glacially-carved lakes of central New York State. The lakes moderate air temperatures and extend the growing season on steep shoreline slopes. Riesling is the most commercially prominent variety in the TTB COLA registry from this appellation, alongside other cool-climate white varieties and Cabernet Franc.
Wine Grabber Registry
No explicit Wine Grabber COLA record matches are currently linked for this AVA.
Wine Grabber links COLA records to AVA pages only when the public TTB registry data explicitly identifies the appellation. State-level records (California, Oregon, Washington, etc.) are not counted as AVA matches even when the producer is located in the appellation.
